[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1993831] Re: gnome-shell does not contain gjs dependence
After I started typing this comment, upstream left a later comment "gnome-shell includes some small external D-Bus services - namely org.gnome.Shell.Extensions.service, org.gnome.Shell.Notifications.service and org.gnome.Shell.Screencast.service - that require the standalone gjs executable. The package that provides /usr/bin/gjs should therefore be a dependency of the package that includes those services (gnome- shell/gnome-shell-common)." Having working notifications and screencasting is important, so I'm reopening this bug. Thank you for taking the time to help make Ubuntu better. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1993831 Title: gnome-shell does not contain gjs dependence Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Hi, I updated from Ubuntu 22.04 to Ubuntu 22.10 and I had an issue with GNOME shell "Extensions" app. I replaced "Extensions" (gnome-shell-extension-prefs) with Flatpak version of it from Flathub using GNOME "Software" center.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1993831] Re: gnome-shell does not contain gjs dependence
I am closing this bug. In the upstream report, upstream confirms that gnome-shell itself does not need 'gjs', only the gjs library. The gnome-shell-extension-prefs app packaged as a .deb correctly depends on gjs. A default Ubuntu Desktop install includes gjs. For you to remove gjs, you will have needed to remove the GNOME Characters app and the Desktop Icons NG extension and the ubuntu-desktop metapackage. At that point, you're outside the fully supported Ubuntu Desktop experience. Maybe the Flatpak needs to bundle 'gjs' if it requires gjs. ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1993831 Title: gnome-shell does not contain gjs dependence Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Hi, I updated from Ubuntu 22.04 to Ubuntu 22.10 and I had an issue with GNOME shell "Extensions" app. I replaced "Extensions" (gnome-shell-extension-prefs) with Flatpak version of it from Flathub using GNOME "Software" center.
